Great location close to the heart of the Gympie city centre and dinning options. Courtney bus pick ups outside front ,very nice clean rooms and comfortable bed. Tea and coffee making factory in the rooms with a fridge, toaster and Kettle. Breakfast room service another good option, Only down side was poor water pressure in the shower.

6/10 Good

Convenient location, relatively quiet. Check-in was quick and easy. Bed reasonable comfortable. Some furnishings needed maintenance. Towels and pillows thin. Shower poor, with low pressure and hot and cold tap handles mislabelled.

8/10 Very good

Manager very kindly offered us a refund when there was an unfortunate but unforseeable issue with the huge and amazing looking spa bath requiring minor maintenance so it could be used. Room was otherwise clean, tidy, spacious, comfortable and private. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others. The breakfast menu sounded great.
